Her indoor said she wanted white,and i think it looks classy,not bad for a £200 breaker till my mate who owns a local garage told me he want rid cos his miss's didnt like it,i told im the only e30 nut in my area and your not going to give me first refuzal :mad: and 18 months later,the guys at the garage liked it :eek: shit is that the same car???

Excellent work. When I clicked on the first pic, photobucket allowed me to flick through lots of the gape pics, looks like the MIG was busy!
Looks much nicer in white too. Did you spray it in your garage too?

PS, I recently wore the same footwear as the young lady in the photo, I didn't want wood shavings in my shoes while chainsawing in a pair of shorts, I would assume she was not doing the same task?? :mad: :mad:
